The problem

Every interruption scatters your windows.

Every meeting buries your tabs.

Rebuilding your setup costs you 23 minutes of focus.

Every. Single. Time.

How it works

Save it. Click it. You're back.

  1. 01

    Save a portal

    One shortcut freezes your whole workspace — every app, tab, and window position — into a portal in your notch.

  2. 02

    Step through

    Hover the notch, click your portal. That's it. That's the whole workflow.

  3. 03

    Everything snaps back

    Apps launch, tabs reload, windows fly to their exact positions. Like you never left.

Features

Small app. Heavy magic.

Lives in the notch

A dynamic island for your Mac. Always there, never in the way — your portals are one hover away.

Apps + tabs + windows

Not just app launching. Portl restores browser tabs and exact window positions, down to the pixel.

One-click restore

No setup scripts, no fiddling. Click the portal and your entire context pours back onto the screen.

100% local & private

Portals never leave your Mac. No account, no cloud, no telemetry. Your workspace is yours.

The money shot

Watch a day's setup come back in a second.
